Association between race, ethnicity, and surgical case cancellations: A retrospective study in a cohort of patients undergoing oncological surgeries
Background
Surgical delays and cancellations have been shown to occur more frequently in racial and ethnic minority patients. We hypothesized that race and ethnicity are independent risk factors for surgical cancellations in patients with cancer.
Methods
This retrospective study reviewed surgical procedures in a large tertiary cancer center. The primary outcome was surgical cancellation before or on the intended surgery date. The primary exposure variable was a patient's self-reported race and ethnicity. A multivariable logistic regression model was fitted to estimate the effects of covariates on the status of case cancellation. A p-value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Results
Of 109,400 surgical cases, the overall rate of cancellation was 4.45 %. The highest rate was among patients in the head and neck service (15.04 %). Overall, changes in treatment were a frequent cause of cancellations (54.9 %). Black patients had the highest rate of cancellations among all ethnicities (5.4 %), with the breast surgical oncology service having the highest rate of cancellations among Black patients (16.6 %). After only including unique first clinical encounters of each patient (N = 78,227) and with adjustment of gender, age-adjusted CCI and primary surgery type in a mixed effects model which treated surgery date as a cluster variable, patients identified as NH-Asian (OR, 99.8 % CI: 0.56, 0.40–0.79), and NH-White (OR, 99.8 % CI: 0.64, 0.53–0.78) had statistically significant lower odds of surgical cancellation compared to NH-Black patients. Those identified as NHPIA (OR, 99.8 % CI: 0.57, 0.22–1.51), Hispanic or Latino (OR, 99.8 %: 0.82, 0.65–1.03), and Other (OR, 95 % CI: 0.76, 0.46–1.26) did not have significant lower odds of surgical cancellation compared to NH-Black patients.
Conclusions
Our work suggests that in the context of cancer care, Black or African-American patients have an increased risk of surgical cancellations.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Clinical Anesthesia (JCA) addresses all aspects of anesthesia practice, including anesthetic administration, pharmacokinetics, preoperative and postoperative considerations, coexisting disease and other complicating factors, cost issues, and similar concerns anesthesiologists contend with daily. Exceptionally high standards of presentation and accuracy are maintained.
The core of the journal is original contributions on subjects relevant to clinical practice, and rigorously peer-reviewed. Highly respected international experts have joined together to form the Editorial Board, sharing their years of experience and clinical expertise. Specialized section editors cover the various subspecialties within the field. To keep your practical clinical skills current, the journal bridges the gap between the laboratory and the clinical practice of anesthesiology and critical care to clarify how new insights can improve daily practice.
